[QUOTE="alexsd123, post: 1116902, member: 110970"] It all depends on what you're doing, what applications you have open, your brightness etc. The battery will last, according to Apple, 8-9 hours. This is probably with brightness halfway and web browsing. And yes, 5:14 means around 5 hours and 14 minutes left if you continue doing the same thing. Try turning off Bluetooth if you aren't using it, it may not be a significant battery saver but it helps. You should really only calibrate your battery once a month at [U]most[/U]. I would suggest calibrating your battery once you get it, just to be sure. Don't, however, be paranoid about your battery and just enjoy you new Mac! ;) [/QUOTE]
